Vercel is so overpriced on their hosting plans that they can afford that to attract new customers, I guess.

I don't think we can say it's been "handled well" when the customer had to rant on social media to get CEO attention. If OP didn't had any followers or else, Vercel would probably had done nothing.

Lots of GPU Clouds around. To play with toys I use runpod's community cloud. Very affordable.

The author refers to "psychedelic pyrotechnics of my particular story" so i'd say some LSD/LSD RC/Shrooms.

Maciej definitely pushed back the obesity on Pinboard even more since his 2015 talks- now, most features doesn't work anymore:) /s (almost). Anyhow: an old classic and very good article. Miss (2015) in the title.

I have had the exact same discussion as we're having now many times since Twitter released the For You timeline. Never managed to pin-point to a specific behavior, everyone seems to get a different one. Not surprised than Elon's T

Twitter API uses oAuth for authentication. Third-party clients saw their keys revoked, meaning oauth social sign-in ain't going to work either.

What do you mean by "reload" ? I just tried on iOS to "exit" the app (swipe up in task manager), restart the app: it kept showing me the chronological timeline, like I picked last time. Also- this random behavior is tota

Ah! Yes, since they rolled out the For You/Timeline things, the apps tend sometimes to revert to For you randomly for no reason... One of my alts gets switched everytime, while my main account does not. All using them from the same iOS

Wait, what? Since when? I'm regulary reading using the chronogical timeline and I'm not seeing anything like you describe (I only see that using the "for you" algo timeline). Very concerning anyway. :(

This. I immediately checked my IRC/IM bots and other tools that uses the API, they still work perfectly. So it looks like it's a sort of crackdown against third-party clients, and not API wind-down or technical issue (why would a

Switch to the original timeline, not the algorithmic one.

This is not new at all. I forgot when the "For You" tab got deployed, but for a while my iOS app kept switching to it-- hasn't happened in months now.

afaik, gpt-4 is mostly rumours so far, same thing for the 1.5T number. gpt-4 is suerly coming.

Why the burden of making this google-specific rate-limiter should fall on Sourcehut ? They are a small team and a user-agent-per-repo specific limiter have rare uses. Google should definitely fix their shit, but when we see that a googler s

Who knows! There's "precedents", tho. MidJourney, the art AI, trained Stable Diffusion over favorites generations of their community, making it a "fine tuned Mid-Stable Diffusion" that was quite amazing (that was th

The guilt by association -which Pleroma suffered of at some point and probably still does, too- exists. I kinda think it's fine in the end. You are free to not use an instance that uses that kind of blocks. I kinda get why they exist,

I have never said anything like that, I just again, stated a fact. That i'm pro- or against this is out of the topic; but while I don't entierly agree with that, I can definitely understand the _reasons_ they are doing it. And we

As I just said elsewhere it's not going to "run curl commands" in training time. it's trained on a corpus of public data, it's not running commands at all

Noticed this as well. Just like you can ask it for showing `uname -a` and others. The results tend to vary given the temperature of the result and just seem to invent realistic bits of data from the one it noticed in training (e.g., Stack O

Of course- it makes sense to run ChatGPT free now (reminded that it's an experiment) for training & betatesting. But running it even larger, and on a search engine ? It's a magnitude of difference imo, and totally different th

I can imagine AI replacing search engines in a somewhat far future, but in the meantime, it'll mostly be used to flood the internet with many low quality articles. Consequence will be as you said, but I also wonder if it won't low

I really wonder how the economics of running chatgpt for Bing's request will work. GPT is anything but cheap to run, IIRC, it requires more than four A100 GPU cards.

And I never ever said this. You are definitely free to use it, to not care about ideology of people making software. I think it's worthwhile to note this. As I said elsewhere, my comment wasn't to tell people to avoid Soapbox (nor

Working with Gab & Truth Social is kinda the indicator of alt-right-ness I'd say no? :) I agree that he got some _correct_ views- mostly anyone does; but I read the guy posts over the years, it's widely known on the fediverse

In current times you cannot really forget/ignore the background of projects. Like some parts of the fedi are quite agressive at it e.g., auto-banning instances using Soapbox. One may want to know this background while reading a softwar
